Park’s Mock Trial Team Wins 2026 County Championship!
On Wednesday, March 4, Park’s Mock Trial Team won the Baltimore County Championship competition! Representing the defense, Park defeated Fallston High School in a very close match. Park is now one of eight teams left (out of 140-150) in the state-wide mock trial competition. Coming up next will be the Maryland State Regionals.
“Our students really did an exceptional job,” Jamie Altchek ’98, one of the team’s coaches, said. “It has been a very exciting season and county tournament for us. The amount the team has learned and the progress they have made has been beyond impressive.”
Congratulations to the team on their run of stellar performances!
About Mock Trial: Mock Trial provides students with the opportunity to explore the legal process and participate in simulated trials. Students receive a case from the Maryland State Bar Association’s Statewide High School Mock Trial Competition, are assigned roles as attorneys or witnesses, and compete against other students from Baltimore County public, parochial, and independent schools.
Excelling in this head-to-head competition requires understanding of the law, court procedures, and the legal system; excellent listening, speaking, reading, and reasoning skills; communication and cooperation; and focused determination.
The Park Mock Trial team won its first Maryland State Championship in 2004. In 2011 and 2012, Park captured the State Championships two years in a row, marking the first time in competition history that any team has won back-to-back championships. Park took home the Championship title once again in 2017, 2021 and 2022. In 2021, Park went on to become the National High School Mock Trial Champions!
